== Description ==

−
This script calculates residue contact maps and compares them between
 
−
different structures. Residues are considered in contact when the minimum
 
−
inter-residue distance of all pairs of heavy atoms is less than
 
−
4.2A.<BR>
 
−
In the default mode with two structures as arguments the fraction of contacts
 
−
present in the second structure with respect to the first is determined.
 
−
Also calculated is the continuous quantity rho that uses a sigmoidal function
 
−
for the minimum inter-residue distance around 4.2 A to effectively include
 
−
residue pairs that are slightly further apart with a reduced weight.
 
−
An extended output is available with <B>-list</B> to get a list of all residue
 
−
contacts in the reference structure with the minimum distances in the reference
 
−
as well as the test structures.
 
−
<BR>
 
−
If only one structure is given as an argument no comparison is done. A residue
 
−
contact list is printed out instead. This list can be used in later comparisons
 
−
with <B>-read</B> to save time if multiple structures are compared to the same
 
−
reference. The more costly calculation of the reference residue map then
 
−
has to be done only once.
 
−
<BR>
 
−
The option <B>-l</B> is available to limit the residue map to contacts with
 
−
a subset of residues as might be useful for loop modeling.
